TMR reticle offers areas of .2 mil subdivisions to precisely measure the common
one meter target quickly from 500 to 1,000 meters and beyond. This has previ-
ously been the most difficult task in long-range shooting, since this entire range
lies in the span between one and two mils. The position of the .2 mil subdivi-
sions are intentionally placed on the periphery of the fine crosshair in order to
keep the central area clutter free. All existing mil dot calculations and formula
tools are compatible with the Leupold TMR design.

A milliradian is a unit of measure derived from the degrees of a circle (in a 360
degree circle, there are 6,283.2 milliradians, or 17.45 milliradians per degree.)
This means that a milliradian will subtend different amounts at different
ranges. For example:
The subtension of 1 mil equals 3.6 inches at 100 yards or 36 inches at 1,000
yards. In metric units, the correspondence is 1 mil equals 10 centimeters at
